Rise of the Shadows!

[Kamalia]

Molly watched over Daray, a slightly nervous look on her face.

Tira coughed a few times and sniffled, but she looked determined. She was up and slowly walking around, stretching her stiff muscles and trying to get the blood flowing through her body properly again.

Julius continued looking at Ketsin, his head on his paws. He was watching with interest as the Deosol threw some attacks at a rock.

[Kira]

Daray charged a Shadow Ball, throwing it at the Infernape. The fire type dodged it and launched at Daray, disappearing through him. "HA! Take that you-OW!" He turned as a Psybeam nearly ripped a hole in him, staring at the Gardevoir. "This may be a bit more complicated than I would have hoped."

---

"Did anything Else happen?"
"Cat-fox tried to convince me to look for some stupid Crystals or something...I wish she'd just leave me alone."

Ketsin finally stopped and sat on the ground, glaring at the rock and feeling rather upset.

[Kamalia]

Julius tilted his head. He got up and trotted nearby the Deosol. He stopped a few feet away from him. "Hey..." He leaned slightly to the side to give the battered rock a curious look. "What's up?"

[rubybeam]

Laki stared at the strange mug of liquid she had found in a dusk human settlement, it was warm and smelt good she sniffed it and took a drank...and she never felt so full of energy before she immdeatly stripped off her cloak and mask not realising what affect the liquid had on her she was litreatally jumping of the walls of the cave "OH ARCEUS YES~" her pupils sharnk as if she had turned crazy

((I needed to do something with laki..))

[Kira]

Ketsin looked at Julius and hesitated for a moment. "I'm not strong. I mean..not like my brother. He could blast this rock into bits at my age! And I can barely move it..."

[Kamalia]

Julius blinked at the rock. "Well, gee, it is awfully big. I don't think I'd be able to do anything to it at all!" He gave the Deosol a sheepish little grin. His look turned thoughtful. "Well... not everyone is the same, right? Are you better than Ciro at some stuff? Like, are you faster, or are you tough? Besides, your brother's older than you too. I know a lot of Pokémon that are older than me are lots stronger."

[rubybeam]

besdie the coffee on the mug a label read: meowthnip. WARNING: only give small portions so avoid any seizures (of course laki is part meowth..just it being regular coffee would be kinda dull and hcilish however laki just drank a full mug of liquidtized catnip and she basically is cat to help explain anything..) laki started to laugh uncontorlably on the ground squirming like a worm

[Kira]

"Yeah but, when he was my age he could still make the rock explode!" Ketsin frowned before he thought for a moment. "I..guess I am better at being tough. I mean...at least I'm not puffy in my defense forme!" He said almost cheerfully.

[Kamalia]

Julius shrugged. "Well, there you go. Being tough is good too. So is not being puffy!" He gave Ketsin a weak grin as he recalled what happened to his own fur with static and after baths.

[Kira]

Ketsin tilted his head at Julius. "What Are you anyway?"

[Kamalia]

"Me?" He blinked and poked his chest. "I'm a Buizel. Your sister asked that same question to me as well. She said you guys haven't explored a whole lot? I guess that would explain why you two wouldn't know what I am. Everyone who's been to Sinnoh knows what I am!" He shrugged and gave him a little smile.

[Kira]

"Oh..that..that was probably rude huh?" Ketsin seemed to frown as he looked down. "I'm sorry."

[Kamalia]

Julius shrugged again. "It's okay, I don't mind. I'm just not used to explaining what I am is all."

[Kira]

Ketsin paused before he looked up at Julius again. "So..what can you do?"

[Kamalia]

"Ehm... not a whole lot, to be honest..." The Buizel scratched his neck and looked down at the ground. "I'm a water Pokémon, but I'm not very good at fighting... I know a couple strong attacks, but I don't really know how to use them. I'm more of a pest in a battle than a threat. It kind of bugs me."

[Kira]

"Oh, so you mean you're like Theia? All she can do is heal little cuts and stuff. She can't even attack!" Ketsin seemed to be getting over being upset now.

[Kamalia]

Julius hung his head. "No. I can't heal or nuthin'. I'm just bad at battling is all."

[Kira]

"Awwww, I'm sure there's something you can do." Ketsin said with a little frown. "Like..I dunno..blast someone hard enough with water that they're out cold?"

[Kamalia]

Julius blinked, slowly. "Well, that's how other water types do it, so I guess. Maybe I just need to practice more? Or evolve. That'd be real nice, too."

[Kira]

"I'm sure if you hit certain spots you'd be able to knock just about anyone out!" Ketsin said seriously as he nodded.
